@golddusttattoos Will be 10yrs old in 2023. I will have been tattooing 13ish years. Seems like a good time to start thinking about me…..
I will open my books one more time at the end of January then I will be moving to a much lighter tattoo schedule so I have more time for other things (@autonomyleather, @t.lauren_visuals ❤️, family, travel, art, etc etc) This is my choice & I think it’s the best one I’ve made yet.
I’ve paid plenty of dues and don’t really care about negative opinions.

* also buy expensive neon @golddusttattoos
Had this sign made as a reminder to myself. It’s one of my favorite sayings and I wanted something to commemorate the new direction me and my business are going
Enjoy 😊. #lifeisshort #neon #dallastexas #golddust #art #motivation #dallastattooartist #womenownedbusiness #artistfirst
It’s been a long road so far.
* I don’t normally do these but this was a special circumstance & I accepted the challenge. #progress #tattoorevitalization #dallasmavs #dallastattooartist #tattoos #sportsball #dirknowitzki #colortattoos #hardwork
After almost 10yrs of running a successful business I’ve learned that I’m not a money motivated person.
I became a shop owner because I wanted to have more freedom in the way I do things and free up my schedule in order to CREATE but after a while the “business” part dominates the creative brain. It’s not something I want to continue for myself or my team.
So…..
Nearing the 10yr anniversary of Gold Dust I’ve decided to change it up a bit and get back to those creative roots.
I’ve partnered with local artist and varies small businesses to create a fresh and more art centered environment for my team, myself, and the public.
Gold Dust is getting a new look & new location!!!!
After many months of planning and hard work it’s finally near completion so I’m excited to share the news.
Stay tuned for more details on the new location and our grand opening.
Thank you for all the years of support.
I’m excited for the change of pace and new creative culture.
DONT WORRY, we haven’t gone far
*and NO our Current location is not available There are future plans for that space lol

“Be not afraid of whirlpools,
of strong winds, and murky waves.
Fear the creature that dwells
in the darkness deep,
the ice-shackled Kraken,
that threatens to surface
and your soul to keep.”
